Third: Pros-Coffee comes out at approx. 185 degrees, brews very fast, carafe is well insulated and simple to use, electronics placed on top, simple programming features, self-cleaning program, cord storage & good looks for stainless folks. Cons (not many)-the carafe needs to be cleaned with a bottle brush due to small opening (no biggie), the water reservoir lid is a little sticky sometimes, the coffee receptacle needs a little extra rogering due to the extra filter lid (which can be removed if you want) and if you don't use filtered water to start with, you'll need to replace filters into said lid periodically. Pretty minor stuff. UPDATE: It's been two months and to our disappointment, this product has not performed at a five-star level due to two problems: the carafe leaks internally and then when pouring, 'fermented' coffee comes out via the seam between the black plastic collar and lower stainless portion. We initially thought we were pouring too fast, but close inspection revealed...

A trip to Guatemala a few years ago brought home the difficulties facing coffee growers and their families. Reunion Island prided itself on paying above average prices for its specialty beans and for joining the Rainforest Alliance, a New York-based organization that works with companies to help protect rain forests. But Mr. Pesce wanted to go farther.
He couldn’t figure out what to do until he went for a cup of coffee with a friend and started doodling on the cup. That gave him the idea of gathering some artists together to come up with coffee-cup designs that could be sold for charity. He rounded up 16 artists who produced several elaborate cups and raised $4,000 for Grounds for Health, a U.S. charity that provides women in coffee growing countries with cervical cancer education.
“I realized that this is what I wanted to do,” recalled Mr. Pesce, 28. “I wanted to do more of this.”
He created First Drop Canada, a not-for-profit organization that raises money for several charities, including Grounds for Health, Food 4 Farmers, Coffee Kids, Cups for Education and others. In the past two years, First Drop has organized several fundraising events that have contributed $30,000 to the charities.

ok lastnight I noticed I had left in some old coffee grounds in my coffee maker. It started growing some mold spots on the wet coffee grounds inside the coffee maker. I would say we left it there for 2 weeks? So I ran some vinegar through one cycle. To
ice and salt, I know this sounds weird but it works. Put some ice in your coffee maker and then pour some salt on top of it . slosh it around or get something to stir it around. do this a couple of times and your problem should be solved. Also you can
